Riassunto

A sweet story about the magic of imagination and a favorite pair of boots.

When a boy named William Wilkins puts on his red cowboy boots, his imagination can take him anywhere—to the Amazon River, to the Wild West, to the moon, and even flying on a magic carpet! When his feet outgrow the boots, William is understandably despondent. However after falling asleep one night he discovers he can still visit these far-off places, because the magic is in his mind, not in his boots!

Su questo libro

L'autore:

Scott Emerson has worked as creative director of an advertising agency, a writer and producer for television, and as partner of Telos Fine Art Publishing. He lives with his wife and two daughters in Tempe, Arizona.

Dalla seconda/terza di copertina:

"They weren't magic in the usual way. They didn't glow or throw off sparks or walk around by themselves. A miniature genie didn't live inside them. But when William put them on, he could go anywhere he wanted."

Who doesn't yearn to travel to exotic and fantastic places and see the world in all its splendor, to discover ancient as well as modern-day cultures and peoples--all in the blink of an eye?

Scott Emerson and Howard Post give full rein to imagination as they tell the story of William, who is able to travel with his dog, Bob, anyplace in time and space that he desires--all because of his magic, red cowboy boots--he thinks!

Beautifully illustrated, The Magic Boots explores the feelings of wanderlust in young and old alike. It's a delightful story to read again and again.
